Folks, I need someone to prepare a standard response for me to send out to inquiries on this topic. I get them a lot. What I'd like is a factual, non-perjorative list of the things which PostgreSQL and the PostgreSQL project have that MySQL does not, with a little bit of explanation by each. Where links can be provided, please do so. Examples: PROCEDURES: Postgres supports stored procedures (as functions) allowing programming in the database for the many tasks which are far more efficient, consistent, and secure done there. Procedures may be written in any of nine different languages, currently, with two more in development. MySQL does not support procedures at all. TRANSACTIONS: blah, blah, blah. MySQL has just begun offering transactions this year, and their solution is largely untested, slow, and suffers from complications with the many different "table types". PostgreSQL's MVCC transaction support, on the other hand, has been in use in production in numerous environments for over six years. Can anyone do this? -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco
